    Q7. Where in Oxford would you find an artistic Italian butcher hard at work?

    Christ Church college ?

    I'd agree weeowens - I've just found that one myself from a link on Italian wiki here

    And I'd agree with your answer Lyon House at #9 as per the Lyons Corner House

    Cheers Melli,nice to see you posting :-)
  • I think last question is Frederick Burnaby
  • from the National Portrait Gallery - Burnaby's exploits as a cavalry officer and explorer captured every schoolboy's imagination; over six feet four inches tall, he was reputed to be the strongest man in the British Army; his books about his adventures, including A Ride to Khiva, 1876, and On Horseback through Asia Minor, 1877, were bestsellers; in 1885 he took part in the relief expedition to Khartoum in the Sudan, and died from a spear wound.

    It's not 100% clear flights are included but I read the T&C (maybe wrongly) that it must include them but you have to get yourself to/from Gatwick. I guess it's not safe to assume they are but they don't seem to say that they are not...
